Secretary Manning's Grievance.

washington special.
The Mannings have returned to Washington,
where they intend to remain until they can pack
up their household goods. Mr.. Manning is re-
iuctant to leave Washington, but he is not re-
luctant to sever his connection with the admins
tration. He was longer consulted by the
President in political matters Mr. Manning
had control of the Treasury, but outside
OF that his opinion or advice was not
called for Mr. Manning chafed under this
change. He had been Clevelands political man
ager for too many years. He had felt that the
President owed his political advancement to
him, and he expected when he came here to
Washington that he would still remain Mr..
rcyIeveland's political chief. Mr.. Manning's re-
tirement from the Treasury doubtless means his
retirement from the field of active politics
When he went away from Washington, after
rendering his resignation to the President, he
babe no one goodbye. This gave rise to the re-
port that he went away angry. This is not
true, but 1t is true that he went away disap-
pointed If 1t had not been for his health he
would doubtless have remained in the Treasury

He could not speak than half dozen
words of English. The young lady was eating

Trouble Among the Cattle in the

Special Dispatch to the Ledger.

Special Dispatch to the Ledger.
RUSH HILL, July 2, 'S7.--A dis
ease has broken out among John P.
Downs cattle, a few miles north
OF this place, that is causing a great
deal of uneasiness among the farm
ers Of the neighborhood. The State
Veterinary Surgeon was telegraphed
for and came Immediately, and with
DR.. Green, our local veterinary,
drove out to Mr.. Downs to-day and
made a thorough examination and
pronounces it Anthrocis, which seems
to be like the cases last year at Far
Der. He says the malady is a blood
affection, coming under the head of
specific elections and apparently not
transmissable through the air. He
says 1t is sometimes called Charban-
dus or Black Coal. and is considered
ineurable. One animal was killed.
The liver and spleen were about twice
the size they should be. He says the
resins found in the spleen, liver and
bladder are, in appearance, like the
Texas fever; but the transmission of
the malady is different. Three head
have died, besides, the one killed ;
eight others are badly affected, and
the general opinion is they will all
die. The doctor is very communi-
catlve, not only on this particular
disease but on other diseases SO
prevalent among stock. His visit here
was very satisfactory.

Big Thing for Mexico.

Mexico has n enterprise which
amounts to a good deal more than
people give it credit. Geo. Boomer
opened a wool carding establishment
near the depot a year or two since.
He asked for nothing except a
share of patronage. He is doing a
good business and next year will en-
large. Finally he will, we trust, have
a big wooden mill. In the three
months which he does business he
brings about 700 farmers to Mexico
many of them from adjoining coun-
ties. These farmers come here to
have their wool carded but all spend
money with our merchants while
here. Ii Mexico had a few more
men like Boomer We would have fac
